Discounts

Every sibling receives a $20 discount.

Coaches and assistant coaches can now receive a discount of $20 for the toddler program, $30 for the in-town programme and $50 for the travel programme. Each coach receives one discount independently of the number of players she/he registers. Coaches of multiple teams receive multiple discounts.

Sibling discount still applies. Please register using the coach’s name. The system will not find the discount if you are registering using someone’s else name (spouse of significant other).

Volunteers and board members that are not coaches are eligible for a $30 discount.

Any refund will have a fifteen dollar ($15.00) administrative fee deducted from the original amount being requested to be refunded. This fee is to help offset costs that may have already been incurred by SYSL (insurance, roster fees, processing fees, registration fees with the League, etc.). Registration fees will be refunded if the registrar or president receives a written request (email is considered a written request) to withdraw a player from the program before the first game of the season due to the player either

becoming injured and therefore unable to play during the season;

moving from Somerville and deciding not to continue to play in Somerville; or

regardless of (1) or (2) above, the applicable age director granting the refund request.

The refund will be issued by check made out to the parent or guardian of the player. Late fees are not refundable. Uniform fees are not refundable if the player has already been provided with a uniform.

Any exceptions to the above refund policy shall be approved by SYSL board.

Choice of a coach or a team: We are asking parents to let us know if there are any special requests. Team formation is a complicated process involving many parameters such as players skills, families’ requests, friendships, compatibility with the coach, carpooling, etc. In addition, in-town teams are formed with the idea of all teams to be of equal strengths where travel teams are formed with the idea that equal strength players are placed together. Finally, there are requirements on the minimum and maximum number of players in each team and also requirements from MYSL for the travel teams that we need to consider. Putting all these together is a daunting job.
We will try to honor your request but sometimes this is simply not possible.

The age cutoffs for the spring season can be found here. Note that if your child is born in August and you would like her/him to play with hers/his classmates please complete the online registration and email the registrar@somervillesoccer.us with the request.
